LOS ANGELES -- Back in spring training, Joe Maddon cornered Jake Arrieta for a frank conversation about his workload during the upcoming season.Maddon knew Arrieta would be upset any time he got lifted early, especially after tossing 229 innings for the Chicago Cubs on his way to winning the NL Cy Young Award in 2015.But understand its going to pay off in the latter part of the season, Maddon counseled his ace. Our intention is to play deeply into October and possibly November this year.Maddon knew Arrieta might just feel invincible after shouldering the burden of huge innings while compiling a 1.77 ERA. He didnt want the right-hander thinking he could pitch that much every year.Arrieta bought into Maddons plan, and its gotten him to the NL Championship Series with 197 1/3 innings and a 3.10 ERA.Im in a much better place, Arrieta said Monday before the Cubs worked out. Going through that last year has prepared myself as well as the rest of the guys mentally for a longer run this year, and weve been able to handle the moments mentally a lot better as well as physically.With the series tied 1-1, Arrieta starts for the Cubs against Los Angeles Rich Hill on Tuesday night at Dodger Stadium.Arrieta threw his first career no-hitter in the venerable ballpark on Aug. 30 last year in a game that began shortly after 5 p.m., the same starting time as Game 3. Shadows can creep between the mound and home plate at that hour, which Arrieta believes favors the pitchers.I really think it can be difficult to pick up spin, he said. From a pitching perspective, you want to be aggressive early because of the fact that it is a little more difficult to pick up some rotations and spin on pitches when the shadows kind of in between and then it starts to creep out to the mound.In his no-hitter last year, a 2-0 victory, Arrieta struck out 12 and allowed two baserunners -- one on an error and the other via walk.Its going to be a little different feel, but at the same time, for the most part, its just about the same lineup, he said. You try to tackle them accordingly. Use some knowledge that I have from the past to kind of help me tomorrow. But its just another game on a big stage.The mound is a place Arrieta feels comfortable. He complemented the Dodgers ground crew for creating a consistent surface that gives him confidence in his positioning and footing.When youve been in these situations before, it makes it a lot easier just to kind of take that deep breath, focus on your execution and go from there, he said.Hill follows Clayton Kershaw as the second straight left-hander to start for the Dodgers in the NLCS, and he draws inspiration from the three-time Cy Young Award winner.Hes got the stuff, right? You cant argue that, Hill said. But then theres another level of that competitiveness that comes out where if youre on the other side and youre down on one knee, hes going to put you away. Thats something that when I see that, you just never quit, you never give up, you continue to attack.Hill had a 2.12 ERA during the regular season allowed a combined five runs in seven innings starting Game 2 of the NL Division Series against Washington and returning on short rest in the decisive Game 5.Now, Hill returns on regular rest and manager Dave Roberts said the finger blisters that have bothered the left-hander this season are not an issue.With Richie, its an inning-by-inning thing, so well just keep our fingers crossed, Roberts said. Because all things being equal, the blister holds, I really, really like our chances.Hill hasnt thrown more than 93 pitches since being acquired from Oakland in August. The blisters have affected how often he starts and how long he pitches.The Dodgers will have to find a way to beat the Cubs without Kershaw, who has worked overtime in these playoffs and isnt expected to be available for the next three games in Los Angeles.Roberts confirmed rookie Julio Urias is set to start Game 4 on Wednesday, followed by Japanese rookie Kenta Maeda, who has allowed seven runs over seven innings in two postseason appearances.
